Introduction:
All peoples from the world know that the smoking is a bad for health. Although these there are some peoples start the smoking for many reasons. Many peoples start the smoking from young either when go army and from school. I suggest the smoking is one very problem for the world and must be found a solution for it not to become to dies a peoples from it. People who smoke have more colds, flu, and pneumonia than people who do not smoke. After you quit smoking, you will have fewer of these illnesses. You will probably lose your smoker's cough 1 or 2 weeks after you quit smoking.
Tobacco smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, 69, of which are known to cause cancer. Smoking is directly responsible for about 90 percent of

On average, adults who smoke cigarettes die 13-14 years earlier than non-smokers.(4)

Due to a recent resurgence of consumption, the effects and health consequences of smokeless tobacco products are a major public health interest. He studied the degree course and time from the absorption of nicotine and cardiovascular effects of smokeless tobacco products (oral snuff and chewing tobacco) and in relation to smoking cigarettes and chewing nicotine gum in 10 healthy volunteers. High nicotine content was similar but, due to prolonged nicotine absorption, total exposure was twice as long after the single exposures to smokeless tobacco products compared with smoking cigarettes. All tobacco use increase in heart rate and blood pressure, with a trend toward greater influence overall cardiovascular despite evidence of growing resistance to the effects of nicotine with the use of smokeless tobacco products.

In addition to being responsible for 87% of lung cancers, smoking is also associated with cancers of the mouth, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, pancreas, uterine cervix, kidney, and bladder. Smoking accounts for at least 29% of all cancer deaths, is a major cause of heart disease, and is associated with conditions ranging from colds and gastric ulcers to chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and cerebrovascular disease. Women have a better chance in getting lung cancer then men do. This year the disease will kill 68,000 women in the United States, more than one and a half times as many as breast cancer. Even if a woman smoked for awhile and quit, her chances are much greater then a man that smoked 2 times longer then the woman did.

Many people try to quit smoking but it still is very possible to develop lung cancer years after you quit. The risk of second hand smoke is real and women are at a higher risk to develop cancer this way. In addition, there is evidence that lung cancer in people who never smoke have a better prognosis than in those who do smoke, and that patients ...
Encyclopaedia of Children’s (2013) stated that smoking is a form of inhalation of smoking from different forms of tobacco which include cigarettes, pipes, and cigars. Cancer Research (2012) and the World Health Organisation (2013) have confirmed that most tobacco products contain very high level of nicotine which can have additive effect and are made from tobacco leaf which are s...
The prevalent use of tobacco products among Americans is an important issue that should be brought to the surface. This issue should be raised because many of the diseases and illnesses associated with tobacco use are preventable. Most individuals are aware of the health threats associated with tobacco use, but are unable to quit. As future healthcare professionals, part of our duty is to educate the public about these health threats as well as help tobacco users quit. Throughout this paper we will inform about the various tobacco products, the effects they pose on the body, cessation options and strategies available for users, and learning outcomes.
Smoking is linked to multiple different forms of cancers such as lung, larynx (voice box), nose and sinuses, pharynx (throat), stomach, pancreas, kidney, and bladder to name a few. Lung cancer is the number one cause of death related to cancer for men and women and is very difficult to treat. A person with lung cancer not only has significant pain, but experiences anxiety related to the feeling of not getting enough oxygen. Besides cancer, smoking is linked to multiple other health problems – heart disease, aneurysms, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. With heart disease, the nicotine in the blood increases the level of adrenaline which leads to an elevation of the blood pressure by causing blood vessels to constrict. This constriction of the blood vessels makes the heart pump harder resulting in an increased heart rate. An aneurysm in the brain can be caused by the hundreds of harmful toxins in cigarette smoke that weaken the wall of the brain’s blood vessels. The weaken blood vessels can rupture leading to a stroke or often death. Chronic bronchitis is caused by the toxic chemicals irritating the lining of the airway and leading to a buildup of mucus. The mucus is a natural
Smoking cigarettes is a detrimental practice not only to the smoker, but also to everyone around the smoker. According to an article from the American Lung Association, “Health Effects” (n.d.), “Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., causing over 438,000 deaths per year”. The umbrella term for tobacco use includes the use of cigarettes, cigars, e-cigs and chewing tobacco. While tobacco causes adverse health consequences, it also has been a unifying factor for change in public health. While the tobacco industries targets specific populations, public health specifically targets smokers, possible smokers, and the public to influence cessation, policies and education.
Every American needs to stop and evaluate the risks that come along with smoking cigarettes and why American’s as a whole should drop this bad habit. According to Xin Xu, from Center for Disease Control and Prevention (COD), “Smoking kills about 480,000 American’s each year and remains the leading cause of preventable death and disease in the United States.” The cost of a pack of cigarettes range from 5.25 to 12.85; therefore, over 20 years, if a person smokes a pack a day, it cost about 38,000 dollars to smoke cigarettes. One’s appearance will diminish over time. Research shows that a smoker’s life expectancy is 10 years shorter than a nonsmoker. No matter what age someone is, it is never too late to stop smoking. American’s need to drop the bad habit of smoking because of the cost and also, the effect of one’s appearance, health, and future.
There are over 7,000 chemicals present in tobacco smoke. Of those over 250 are deemed harmful, and of those 69 are cancer causing. Those cancer causing substances are called carcinogens (Nugel). It is clear that cancer and smoking can be linked. Smoking causes cancer of the lung esophagus, larynx, mouth,...

Smoking is not only bad for health it is also as bad for the people

Scientists and health officials have been arguing the detrimental effects smoking has on our health for many years. Smoking can lead to serious complications including asthma, pancreas, lung and stomach cancer due to the large number of carcinogens (cancer causing chemicals) and other various substances added to it. It is a health hazard for both smokers and non-smokers and it is especially harmful to unborn babies. Although smokers claim that it helps them to relax and release stress, the negative aspects of the habit take over the positive. As it has been stressed by the scientists and experts, there are some very severe reasons of smoking but its crucial consequences should also be taken into consideration.
